BioWare, an EA studio and FUNimation Entertainment, the leading distributor of Japanese animation in North America, announced today an agreement to create an anime feature film adapted from BioWare’s critically-acclaimed fantasy Action RPG franchise Dragon Age. Production of the Dragon Age anime movie is slated to begin in May 2010, with a home video release in 2011. Executive producing the film are Bioware’s Executive Producer MarkDarrah and Creative Director Mike Laidlaw, as well as FUNimation’s Fukunaga and Director of Original Entertainment Chris Moujaes.

“Anime is a great medium for us to continue the robust Dragon Age story,” said Mark Darrah, Executive Producer for the Dragon Age franchise. “Partnering with FUNimation ensures that we are delivering the exceptional quality and entertainment value that our Dragon Age fans expect.”

“We are thrilled to be working with EA and BioWare on the production of the Dragon Age anime feature,” said Gen Fukunaga, President and CEO of FUNimation. “We are going to be bringing the classic visual and storytelling techniques found in anime to create a film that will extend the narrative of the world BioWare has created.”

Dragon Age has been selected as the first title in FUNimation’s slate of major anime movies to be developed through FUNimation’s Original Entertainment team since the announcement of the company’s co-production initiative in November 2009.

It's going to be shitty like Dead Space: Downfall and that one Dante's Inferno movie.

 

[Krynn72]

Funny how I like the game less all of the sudden.

REMEMBER THE HALO ANIMAYS LOL?

 

[Bad^Hat]

Halo: Legends was so profoundly awful. I don't know if I actually made a post about it, but it can be summarised thusly: there is a DBZ parody in there.

Yep.

 

[unozero]

it COULD be like Claymore....that would be ****ing sweet.

 

[Danimal]

Even I know it'll be terrible once I saw "FUNimation"

 

[unozero]

you realize they publish right?

 

[Acepilotf14]

They publish anything regardless of quality.

 

[unozero]

they have Blue Gender under their belt so it could turn out either way.

You realise that by me bolding the "I", it implies that I am generally ignorant to anime, which include what certain anime-related companies do, right?

EDIT: Is Dragon Age that game with the gay elf sex in it? If so, **** yeah.

 

[Gargantou]

Will it have scenes with underage-lolita elf females running around naked?

ok shaggy.

Edit: Dan, I'm pretty sure you had to mod in gay sex. You know the rule: if it aint blue, you can't scissor with it.

You mean Girl Berzerk? Meh, way to set your sights high.

Not-entirely-related, but I always kind of wondered this... do elves age normally through early life and into 'adult form,' or is it much slower like the rest of their lifespan? If the latter, you'd have to wonder what the age of consent would be. >_>

 

[morgs]

Hmm, never thought about that Bad^Hat...

 

[Danimal]

I wasn't talking about female gay sex. :/

 

[DEATHMASTER]

Obviously, queerbait.

Ain't no age of consent in the middle ages bro.

Yeah, but there wasn't any of that, either.

Except in the origin stories maybe? But I think it was more like having it both ways.
